The sceneries here are quite marvelous that people from all directions come for a visit. The great traveler in Chinese history, Xu Xiake, who has traveled around the world, has gone to Tiantai Mountain for three times and written two praiseful notes for posterity.
Drive to Taizhou and check in Tiantai Hot Spring Hotel.
Then, tour Ji Gong Former Residence, which used to be a private garden of Li Family, the family of Ji Gong, and Guoqing Temple, which still keeps the simplicity and purity of Buddhism.
